How to Use MATLAB Production Server Interface for TIBCO Spotfire Software

This detailed explanation will show you how to use MATLAB Production Server™ Interface for TIBCO Spotfire^® Software. You'll be able to create analytics using the MATLAB^® development environment, publish them directly to MATLAB Production Server, and use them as data functions in Spotfire.

MATLAB Production Server Interface for TIBCO Spotfire Software is a Spotfire extension that provides a link to a robust and scalable MATLAB analytics engine. This extension supports advanced analytics processing for multiple concurrent users within the Spotfire environment.

The interface is managed and deployed to Spotfire desktop, web, and mobile clients using the Spotfire Server. MATLAB programs are packaged using MATLAB Compiler SDK™ and hosted on MATLAB Production Server. Spotfire clients use the extension to make calls and pass data to these MATLAB programs.

A MATLAB Production Server configuration tool is provided as part of the extension, which:

• Allows users to define the location of one or more MATLAB Production Server instances
• Provides a library of MATLAB programs that can be chosen for use in Spotfire applications
• Defines and manages configurations using XML configuration files
